Introduction til standardization Danish national committe for Wind Turbines S-588

What is a standard? A standard is a agreement document A standard is a consensus document A standard is voluntary (Unless it is to be used for certification)

A life without standards would be rather complicated…

Standards have become an extremely important tool in globalization International European National Regulation of national marketsInternal markedGlobalization New Approach CEN Danish Standards CENELEC ISO IEC 1947

Types of standards - Product standards - Test standards - Terminology/pictogram standards - Management standards - Quality standards

Standards describe what we want to achieve, but not how! •Different heights of hats? •Stilts? •Staircases?

What does a standard consist of? • Introduction • Foreword • 1. Scope • 2. Normative references • 3. Definitions • 4. Symbols og abbreviations • 5. Requirements • Functional requirements • Test methods • Labelling • Annex A (normative) • Annex B (informative)

Access to Danish, European and international standardization through Danish Standards Three levels: •International Wind Turbines IEC TC 88 •European (Regional) Wind Turbines CLC TC 88 •Danish (National) The ‘Energy Agency’s Secretariat for the Danish Wind Turbine Certification Scheme’

Organization – ISO/IEC

How does the Danish Mirror Committee S-588 work? •All relevant documents are distributed from Danish Standards to the members of S-588 •Clarification of Danish vote and comments at enquiries •Members can participate in international meetings •Members can participate in international working groups •Presentation of the new work items •Implementation of standards

First to receive new knowledge about standards and future standards Direct network with colleagues, communities and customers where knowledge on specific issues is exchanged Influence by developing and writing the future standards at national or international level Standards, guidelines and handbooks disseminate knowledge in relevant areas Standardization provides competitive advantages Access to a unique national and international network of expertise Structure and systematics are keywords in standardization
